How about,

Purpose: The purpose of the Guild shall be to promote the learning,
teaching, and dancing of court dance from these categories: the SCA
period (pre-1601) and the current Middle Ages (SCA creations and 
other dances that are commonly done in the SCA).

I cannot accept including the 17th century.  That is going directly 
going against corpora.  We would not be excluding Playford nor 
encouraging dance natzies.

Lets have a compramise.  In the requirement for Journeyman and 
Magister level state that 1/2 the required dance must be documented 
to pre-1601.  Is this to much?
